The problem is that they're not willing to miss games like other sports have. In 2011, they caved right after the HOF game was cancelled. In 2020, I can understand why they'd agree quickly with the oncoming pandemic, but they could've done a shorter-term deal.

Irving sucks, and he's always looking for an excuse not to play when he isn't spreading hate. It's also unfortunate that this incident has given way more press to that film than they could've ever bought. Almost nobody would've ever heard of it otherwise.

Obviously, but the owners have all the leverage as long as players aren't willing to miss a paycheck, so the players will never get the long-term win.
